Advertising Fail - Product Fail

Kraft: Sizzling Salads, Chicken Caesar Dinner Kit:


Just add chicken and salad.


Okay, so what am I buying? A miniature bottle of dressing and strange sauce to coat the chicken. Great!


Kroger brand: Butter It's Not!


I don't think I should even explain this one.


Xenical and Alli:


May cause uncontrollable gas, oily discharge, explosive bowel urgency, sometimes without warning. Manuacturer recommends that users carry a change of clothing.


No thank you, that's okay, I will keep the extra pounds.


Latisse:

"LATISSE® use may cause increased brown pigmentation of the colored part of the eye which is likely permanent. Eyelid skin darkening may occur which may be reversible. ......... DO NOT APPLY to the lower eyelid. Hair growth may occur in other skin areas that LATISSE® solution frequently touches........ If discontinued, lashes will gradually return to their previous appearance."


So, I will look like a brown-eyed raccoon...a hairy brown-eyed raccoon? If I really need more eyelashes, I can buy them for $3 a set at most drug stores. Really, with no lashes I can just skip the entire mascara mess!


Betty Crocker Fruit Snacks:


The commercial is simple. Mom and son are at the grocery store. Son begins to whine for a snack. His whining continues all the way through the store, that is until his mother picks up a nice healthy package of Betty Crocker Fruit Snacks.


Okay, I get that the fruit snacks are a "healthy" alternative to junk snacks. Unfortunately all "mom" has done is let her kid know that whining will get him what he wants. BIG FAIL on this one!
